Thread 2833657

never really rode a motorbike before, scooter maybe i rode once or twice. Would it be good idea to rent motorbike (not scooter) and take organized motorbike trip with >=1 other people over Greece (mostly Pelopones)? I heard that region of Greece is sparsely populated so if i just survive until gtfo of Athens then i should be all fine?

why no one likes Greece in /trv/? /lit/ is all about start from the greeks, so it does not compute, that no one is interested in birthplace of white man's culture

trv is all about incel losers traveling to third world so they can afford hookers

What's actually the most kino experiences in Greece? Always looked abit like white house 'live your myth' by the sea stuff. Do people even go inland?

If you're coming from a Northern Europe cunt or America/Canada it is extremely risky. The roads/ driving culture in Greece is very different and chaotic compared to what you're probably used to.

With that being said, the best things in life often involve risk. I am a paramedic by trade and personally would never. I've seen what happens when things go wrong and very very wrong. I guess do what you like and definitely get good travel insurance. It would certainly be a blast if everything goes right.

I am from central europe
i have driving license for 3 years, driving regularly for few months. Do you recon renting a car (preferably same model as i have) for greek trip over Pelopones would be much safer?

A motorbike is a good idea to do on your own but not for an organized trip, so I would do it solo.

Listen, I'm American and have had minimal exposure to roads in southern/balkan Europe, What I have seen is frantic, not terrifying, just frantic. I don't know statistics of the region. From what little I have scene( a few 1 weeks trips) it's not spectacular.

What I do know is motor bike accidents can be deadly at even low/moderate speeds. What makes me concerned for you is that you have no relevant motorbike experience, and to try it in an area with increased risk exposure is not fantastic.

There is a way to ride motorbikes safely. It's not to do it in an area you're unfamiliar with and a driving culture that doesn't make sense to you. At minimum buy a cheap bike at home and take a few weekend rides first. Sell it when you're done and only be out a few hundred bucks.

I never drove before in my life before my mom put me in a driving school. Our first driving lesson was in busy afternoon traffic in the city. Pay attention and don't take risks, it's that simple.

driving a motorbike in a foreign country is quite dangerous. you can look up the alarming statistics about tourist deaths from motorbike accidents on google
